This is Kylie's favorite thing to do this month. She sits in her BUMBO chair and watches her Baby Einstein movies. She has to watch close because she can't miss anything.

Here are her pictures from the month of November.

Baby Shower

My Aunt Dana was so sweet and put together a shower for Kylie. We had a nice bunch at Great Granny Gray's in Ellensburg. It was really nice to see some of our family that we have not seen in a while and had not yet met Kylie. Thank you Granny, Aunt Dana, and Leah. Also, a big thank you to everyone for the gifts. Kylie is a lucky girl to have such a wonderful family!

Thankful

Kylie celebrated her first Thanksgiving with a turkey dinner at Nany and Ba's house. We were surrounded by family and we had a really great day together. It was fun to just sit around and visit and of course eat. Susie, your bird was delicious along with everything else. Thanks for a really wonderful thanksgiving. We had a great time with Ryan's entire family including his sister and her husband, his brother and his wife as well as our three nephews and our beautiful niece. Thank you for all for such a wonderful Thanksgiving Day! Maybe next year Ryan will take the day off and not be late for dinner. I love you Ryan, but you are a workaholic.

This year god has really blessed us, especially our gift of our beautiful baby girl. We are so thankful for everything we have. We have wonderful families and friends. A great place to live in Royal were we work and love life. We are BLESSED and so THANKFUL for it all!

Happy Holidays

We final got a couple of pretty good pictures. I really really wanted one of her huge toothless grins. But, maybe I will get it when we do her six month pictures. I was going to wait until Christmas to unveil her 3 month pictures, but I could not wait. So, her she is is at 3 months old.

Thanks Aunt Sybil for the ballerina dress, it was just too cute.

We tried to get her with the ballet shoes, but she just kicked them off.

We would like to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving and hope that everyone enjoys the time with family and friends. We hope that everyone travels safely. We are looking forward to staying in Royal for a delicious meal with Nany and Ba as well as the rest of the gang.

A Ride with Dad

Ryan and Kylie went for a ride on Sunday afternoon. Kylie rode Pistol a horse Ryan is training. Chino and Babe our dogs needed to go with them. She must of enjoyed it because she was really relaxed and came in for a nap when she was done.

Happy Birthday Ryder!

We were invited to our friends Casey and Courtney Smith's house in Ellensburg yesterday for their sons first birthday. We had a really great time. Kylie even had fun in her party hat. Thanks Ryder for letting Kylie try out your Jumperoo. She can't wait for her Christmas present from Grandma and Grandpa now. We all had a great time! It was good to see you guys. Time goes by way to fast. Happy First Birthday Ryder!

A Friend

Halle (8 months old) and Kylie (3 months old)

I had to include both pictures because we could not get both girls to look at the same time, typical.
Kylie has a friend from Moses Lake, Halle. She is a real cutie. Ryan and I are so lucky to have so many friends with babies within the same year as Kylie. Kylie will have lots of friends to play with. Joe and Lyndsey invited us to La Cabana for dinner last night and we have a great dinner and a lot of talking about our little girls. It was a lot of fun!

Happy Birthday Matt!

We wanted to wish you a Happy Birthday. Sorry, that we are a day late, but we definitely had a busy day yesterday. We had Grandma's pictures to do and you birthday party at Granny's. We hope you had a great day! We love you uncle Matt!

Three Months Old

These were the two pictures that we got when we went to Tri-Cities yesterday. She would only smile if I was holding her, so we were able to get one O.K. picture. The other shows Kylie's serious side which many of us know. My mom and I are going to try it again on Thursday and pray for better results. The day wasn't a total loss. I was able to get together with my friend from high school for lunch and one of Kylie's boyfriend Conner. Kylie and Conner are only two weeks apart so it was great to have a mommy chit chat. I was also able to get a little bit of my Christmas shopping done as well as some materials for a couple of projects that I am working on in my share time, haha. Send us smiles on Thursday.

Kylie is now three months old. She seems like such a big girl now. She is so much fun. We love her so much. She is a true blessing in our lives. Kylie can now blow bubbles, do motor boats, and stand for long periods of time. She is a talker. She also can sit with a little bit of support. We will be going to Tri-Cities on Monday to get her pictures done. Please check back for her three month pictures.

Kylie's Bedroom

We have officially finished Kylie's bedroom. Ryan and I put up the shelves and put together her crib. Ryan also put up the signs and decorations to finish her room before her third month birthday. We will now be putting Kylie in her crib for her naps, because by Christmas she will need to be in her crib, instead of her bassinet. She is just getting too big for the bassinet that is in our bedroom. Also, we are needing to pass it on to baby Tripp who will be here in January.

A special thanks to Nany for the beautiful quilt, bumper pad, pillows, and valance. Also thanks to aunt Katie for the signs and picture frame. Grandma thank you for the piggy bank, and boots. Thank you Francine for the crib and dresser. A big thank you to uncle Mike for painting the shelves. Aunt Shannon the moccasins are so perfect on her shelve. Aunt Sybil the cute pony slippers will be great pretty soon. Lyndsey thank you for the polka dot piggy bank. And last but not least Ryan for the cute Kylie sign, her straw hat, and your help last night. I have to mention that I have a little obsession with head bows. I have 49, because Kaylee counted them when she was here yesterday. I have such a fun time putting together a pink cowgirl. I am so glad that it is all finished and Kylie can now enjoy it.

A Fun Afternoon

I was playing teacher this afternoon and I had two students. I picked up Jett from pre-school and Kaylee from school, it was a half day. We had lunch and then got started on our projects. OK I admit it I miss teaching a little. We made some hand print turkeys and cards. We also baked and decorated some cupcakes. Kaylee read Kylie several stories. Jett read Kylie the "Boo" story over and over again, but he only knew the word "boo." It was really cute and Kylie enjoyed the story just the same. We then loaded up and delivered cupcakes and cards to Nany & Ba and well as Grandma Shirley. What a fun and busy afternoon! Thanks for coming over Jett and Kaylee.

Pro-West Banquet

Ryan, Kylie, and I went to the Pro-West Banquet Dinner on Saturday night. It was in Moses Lake at the Best Western. We had a good time showing off Ms. Kylie. The dinner was delicious. I also bid on several auction items. Ryan received his year end award ,which were cinch buckles. It was nice to get to see some of our friends that we have not seen in a couple months. Kylie loves her daddy so much. Ryan is the one that can get the big smiles out of her. He also made Kylie laugh for the first time last week.

Happy Birthday Jason!

We wanted to wish Uncle Jason a very Happy Birthday today! We had fun at your party on Thursday night.

Cousin Jett Henry

Kylie and I had a fun morning spending time with cousin Jett Henry. Jason and Sybil had an ultrasound appointment to check on "Blueberry" aka Tripp Allen. They traveled into Moses Lake this morning, so Jett got to come over and hang out. We baked chocolate chip cookies. We went for a walk and visited Grandma Shirley. He made a card for his mom, dad, and "Blueberry." We watched some cartoons and played candy land. We also had grilled cheese and tomato soup for lunch. Jett is a great babysitter. He is so helpful, I know that he will be a great big brother. I am sure that his mom and dad with be so glad that they have a helper like him. We had a fun and busy morning. Thanks Jett for coming and playing with Kylie Rose today.
